Try a repair install and if that does not work, do a fresh install. Backup
your data first. What you describe sounds like a software problem, not a motherboard problem. I would also do a full virus and spyware scan. - Tim "Scott" wrote in message ... "FG" wrote in message ... Are you sure you have used the correct BIOS settings ? Could it be a software problem ? Have you tried repairing Windows, if that is the system you use ? This only happened when I upgraded my motherboard and processor. At first I had WinXP64 on it and thought that might be the problem. So I took that off and installed my own Win XP Home (after a reformat) and the problem persisted. I have uninstalled all the drivers and reinstalled again to be met by the same problem. Could it be a power supply problem? I have the BIOS settings changed and changed back, even using the BIOS's Optimized settings. Scott |

Any views on 'best' of these three manufactures for socket 939? For features: Abit FATA1TY boards For overclocking: Abit For stability: Asus Gigabyte's not too shabby. Some people complain about their customer service, but all mainboard manufacturers' customer service sucks. You're literally one in BILLIONS to them, and they could care less if you don't buy your next board from somewhere else. -- Registered Linux user #378193 |

Some boards barely overclock, some go whole hog, with the same chipset. -- Ed Light Smiley :-/ MS Smiley :-\ Send spam to the FTC at Thanks, robots. |

IMHO their products are of inferior design and their technical support is so poor that it is hard to believe they get away with it. Jon If I had of known that before buying a gigabyte motherboard..... This is a copy of the email I sent them today. By the sounds of it I may get better support here. "When the system has booted up and has been running smoothly for 5mins to an hour, the system suddenly freezes. During this time I can press Ctrl-Alt-Del to bring up the task manager but nothing is using 100% of the processor. Most programs are using 0-10% but nothing more. I can shut down programs from the task manager, but I cannot use them. To say this, if I am writing to cd or dvd, it will continue to do so - But I cannot click on any menus or 'ok' or 'cancel' buttons if any happen to be on screen. This problem can last from 30 seconds to 5mins and then I have control over my programs again like nothing had ever happened. My virus scanner is completely up to date (Norton antivirus) and both firewalls (Norton and Windows SP2) are up to date and running as they should. Another problem I have is that sometimes I cannot move files to another folder using drag and drop yet if I cut and paste this works without a hitch. Can you think of any reason why this would happen. My motherboard drivers and Bios are bang up to date." Hehe. Funny. Next thing we can sue leash makers when our dogs attack people. -- LTP When the llama speaks you listen. Unfortunately the llama hasn't spoken yet. |

A roundup he http://www.anandtech.com/mb/showdoc.aspx?i=2358 Of SLI boards shall give an intersting insight into s939 boards by those manufacturers (as well as MSI). I think most of them use the same board for SLI / non-SLI, so it should be relevant in that case too.
